Anime
Beyond the Boundary

Otaku no Video
- coldacid watched it on Sunday on Roku
- The "Portrait of an Otaku" segments are kind of annoying
Retro Crush
- Free Roku channel of anime series and movies
- Largely focused on older content (80s-90s) but includes stuff from the 70s through to the 2010s
- Lots of advertisement intrusion, unfortunately
Peter Grill
- The training montage we all need and deserve. The only possible improvement would be adding "Eye of the Tiger".
